Watch Midnight's Children Best Movies

At the stroke of midnight on August 15th, 1947, as India declares independence from Great Britain, two babies are switched at birth by a nurse in a Bombay hospital. And so it is that Saleem Sinai, the bastard child of a beggar woman, and Shiva, the only son of a wealthy couple, are fated to live the destinies meant for each other. Over the next three decades, Saleem and Shiva find themselves on opposite sides of many a conflict, whether it be because of class, politics, romantic rivalry, or the constantly shifting borders that are drawn every time neighbors become enemies and decide to split their newborn nation into two, and then three, warring countries. Through it all, the lives of Saleem and Shiva are mysteriously intertwined. They are also inextricably linked to the history of India itself, which takes them on a whirlwind journey full of trials, triumphs and disasters. (c) Paladin

Review For Movie Midnight's Children

Mehta fudges the political allegory in favour of the story's magical realism, but still can't get her arms around the material - or past Rushdie's own bear-hug.
Guy Lodge-Time Out

Watchable without ever feeling essential.
Liam Lacey-Globe and Mail

Deepa Mehta has crafted an epic, visually pleasing tale weaving politics, colourful splendour, romantic love and magic with her most ambitious film to date ...
Linda Barnard-Toronto Star

With an over-written screenplay and far too much material for audiences to digest, this film proves the rule that authors shouldn't adapt their own books into movies.
Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com

Considering Midnight's Children is bound up in notions of identity, it is faintly disastrous that this adaptation should be so lacking in one of its own.
Robbie Collin-Daily Telegraph

The film is stunningly beautiful. And the story retains at least some of the elements that made the novel so special in its imagination, ambition and scope.
Brian Pendreigh-Radio Times

There is not enough space here to detail the plot, which is basically about two boys whose paths are swapped on the evening of India's independence.
Grant Rollings-Sun Online

Lacks soul, imagination and even basic logic.
Matthew Thrift-Little White Lies

There are some beautiful moments and some decent performances, but it's also something of a slog and ultimately fails to engage on an emotional level.
Matthew Turner-ViewLondon

Midnight's Children is the perfect medley of story, cast and characterisation infused with Rushdie's poetic brilliance.
Priya Joshi-Digital Spy

Mehta has a painterly eye, giving her images a mythological beauty and tender sensuality.
Siobhan Synnot-Scotsman

Thanks to Rushdie's sensitive handling of his own material, this is an adaptation big in both ideas and heart.
Kim Newman-Empire Magazine

As a film and novel, Midnight's Children is a great baggy work ...
Philip French-Observer [UK]

The swirl of history is often too much for the intimacy on display, and the result is decidedly ponderous in places. Yet this is a handsome, well-produced and thoughtfully designed epic.
Derek Malcolm-This is London

There's enough here to entertain - and to send audiences back to the book.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]

Everything here needed enriching, amping up, amplifying out. Less isn't always more; sometimes more is more.
Nigel Andrews-Financial Times

Solid may ultimately be the best word for this pleasing, middlebrow adaptation of Rushdie's 'unfilmable' book.
Allan Hunter-The List

There's humour and heart here, but it's an overlong tale as meandering as the Ganges.
James Mottram-Total Film

A series of pretty, disconnected scenes. At worst, it becomes D-movie Dickens, devolving into semi-broad, semi-quirky comedy, poorly sketched-out coincidence, and a bad X-Men plot. The book is drained of its allusive, allegorical and dramatic force.
Brian Gibson-Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Canada)

[I]t's almost never a good idea to let novelists adapt their own fiction for the screen. A cold distant appraisal of what works onscreen and what doesn't is required, and it's not fair to expect writers to be so brutal with their babies.
MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher
